Verse in context — Hebrews 12

the sound of a trumpet, and the voice of words; which those who heard it begged that not one more word should be spoken to them,

for they could not stand that which was commanded, "If even an animal touches the mountain, it shall be stoned;

and so fearful was the appearance, that Moses said, "I am terrified and trembling.

But you have come to Mount Zion, and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to innumerable multitudes of angels,

to the general assembly and assembly of the firstborn who are enrolled in heaven, to God the Judge of all, to the spirits of just men made perfect,

Jesus as the ultimate High Priest and fulfillment of the Old Covenant.
